Oh, I certainly agree with you. The fundies apparently have a lock on the voice of the right, and it's the federalists on the left who are taking governmental oversight too far. (Statists/state-rights folk are usually right-wing)
I don't think that resetting the gov't is quite the panacea that some claim, however (i.e. the extreme libertarians), as a free-for-all isn't going to help anyone in the long run. Bringing the rights and the obligations of the individual back to the fore, however, would be a wonderful thing.
Oh, and one more thing. Corporations aren't individuals. They aren't the great, nefarious beast that the greens claim, but they do have too much power in our society, with say and sway greater than what any individual can achieve, with far fewer responsibilities.
